Revit places a reference plane at the specified offset.
Revit 2018 trim extruded roof.
Modelling roofs is no different.
To raise or lower the roof from the reference level specify a value for offset.
Using the reference plane you can control the position of the extruded roof in relation to a level.
An option would be to cut hole in the roof is to use roof voids the following way.
Create an in place family roof at choosing void extrusion ideally in a section view draw the contourline of the void using the pick line option on the base of the inside edge of the roof determine the length of the void ideally in 3d view at wireframe mode extend this in order to intersect the.
This is a 100 genuine offer 60 off all my revit courses.
This is a quick experiment to see who reads these description notes and reward tho.
In revit there are multiple ways to approach a modelling exercise.
There are 3 primary sub tools that you can use to model roofs in revit roof by footprint roof by extrusion and roof by face.
The bad thing about extruded roofs is the fact you can t follow along with the footprint of your building the good thing is we can do something about that the objective of this video is to go to the plan view we will then create a void where our walls jag in and out this is going to allow revit to cut the roof properly in plan to get started jump into your revit roofs.
We will delve into great detail on each later on but to start let s look at the standard roof by footprint workflow.
